Newness
somebody recently was mentioning the lack of a proper preview of the new Band of Horses album… and here is a nice little track from Cease To Begin for your rocking pleasure. It’s got a nice little rocksplosion in it too. They do that dramatic shit real well.

What I Can Understand is that the Soundtrack Rocked
This post has been sitting in my drafts folder ever since HBO announced a few weeks ago that John From Cincinnati would not be back for a second season.
Although JFC was almost unanimously panned by everyone who bothered to watch, I have a soft spot for HBO shows, especially those born from the mind of […]
Everything in its right place
Myspace seems the most unlikely place to hear the first leak of a new Radiohead studio track. Yet, there it is. I don’t know who these guys with the page are, but someone obviously does.
Oh and by the way, the song’s title is Arpeggi. It’s brilliantly simple and not what I […]
New Pinback
I’m excited for the 9/11 release of Pinback’s latest offering, Autumn of the Seraphs, but it sure would be nice to be able to review the record in its entirety prior to the actual release date (hint hint).
In the meantime, you can stream “From Nothing to Nowhere” here to get a taste of what the […]
Bowie Song
Jemaine and Bret have been playing this song for live audiences for a couple years now, but it was great to see it make its way onto HBO’s Flight of the Conchords last night. This show is hands down the most enjoyable half hour on TV right now. If you’re not already watching, please start. […]
Rockommercial LTD
Even though these guys allegedly broke up last year, a song off their self-titled inaugural LP (”Anecdote”) recently appeared in a television commercial for Sprint. Also allegedly, Ambulance front man Marcus Congleton is keeping the Ambulance LTD name and working on the now one-man-band’s second album, according to NME.
This band’s first record is really […]
Another PB&J Rockommercial
This time it’s a commercial for a brand I’ve never personally experienced on my own lower half, but one I’ve always been somewhat intrigued by. The brand is Levi’s 501 jeans, and the band is Peter Bjorn and John. This marks the third song they’ve successfully sold to a corporate entity — AT&T Wireless (”Young […]
What’s Your Favorite Song?
Remember when that question was easy to answer, and the answer stayed the same for more than a few days? I know “Alive” by Pearl Jam was probably my favorite song beginning in the summer of ‘91 and lasting through the next few years, and my mom has been using “Lovely Rita” as her answer […]
For the Actor, seriously
Anyone see the newest AT&T commercial featuring a hot indie band? It’s not up on YouTube yet, but I’ll update this post as soon as it is. There’s something ironic about a song called ‘For the Actor’ being featured in an actor-free commercial, especially as the TV commercial landscape becomes increasingly void of human actors […]
